The presence of both TMD and tinnitus has a considerable impact on HRQoL in the Korean population. In our study, the group with both TMD and tinnitus showed lower HRQoL than without TMD and tinnitus group. These results emphasize the need for a multilateral and comprehensive approach to address these disorders, and provide baseline data for developing appropriate interventions.
